A fantastic view of #StormTherese #BorrascaTherese this morning over the nearby Atlantic and, as MeteoGib has been flagging up, responsible for driving further dust across Iberia - giving hazier skies and dusty rain with any showers/rain.

#Iberia #Gibraltar #SaharanDust #Calima - 18/03
As MeteoGib flagged up yesterday, #StormTherese #BorrascaTherese has developed, driving a new influx of dust across the peninsula for today - skies will be hazier, particularly to the S, while dusty rain possible with any showers.
#Iberia #Gibraltar #SaharanDust #Calima - 17/03
As #StormTherese #BorrascaTherese develops West of Iberia later today, it will drive a new influx of Saharan dust NE across the peninsula - bringing some hazier skies, also dusty rain with some of those showers arriving in SW/S late evening/ overnight.
Surges of #SaharanDust are forecast to move across Trinidad and Tobago over the next seven days, reducing air quality and visibility.

#Iberia #Gibraltar #SaharanDust #Calima - 13/03 - we have a little Saharan dust across the South today making the skies a bit hazier, but it will clear for Saturday with the return to a Northwesterly flow/ Poniente.
Spot the differences, yesterday's and today's #sunset look pretty similar to me #SaharanDust. Have a lovely evening 🌄 🤗 and for later #goodnight 🥱😴

I couldn't resist stepping to see what sort of #sunsetphotography the #Saharandust would produce. It was still half an hour before low tide, so my feet got a little wet, but I was delighted to see I wasn't the only one enjoying the spectacle. Thanks to whoever walked into shot! #PhotographyIsArt
